LIVE – RETIRE – INVEST – VACATION
The famous White Beach has been described as the “finest beach in the world”, and not without good reason.
This stretch of white powdery sand stretches for 2.5 miles, and is just one of the many beautiful beaches Boracay has to offer.
It wasn’t until the 1970s that tourism began to develop in Boracay – the island initially became popular with backpackers. Boracay Island was a well guarded secret, almost possessively so that only a few knew of its existence. Word soon spread, of course, as more and more people around the globe became aware of the treasures Boracay had to offer, Hotels, bars, restaurants and other facilities started opening up as the huge tourism potential of the island was realised.Today, Boracay is firmly established as one of the major tourist destinations in the Philippines, if not Asia! With over 700,000 Tourists from around the world.
Tablas Island is just a 15 mins boat ride away, with these Islands in the scope for the next tourist destination, but with Ec-Living and Eco-Tourism as the top appraoches,with 20 Islands In our Galapagos we are not surprised, each Island holding it’s own mystique, cultural events, forna & flora, with Caves, Waterfalls, Mountain Springs, an abundance of fresh fish, fruit and vegetables add to the delights of the Local Quisines….
With a seemingly endless list of sports and activities on offer, areas of outstanding beauty to visit and hundreds of places to eat, drink and be merry, this island is just waiting for your visit.
So much to do – on water…
All kinds of watersport activities are available, including scuba diving, snorkelling, boat-rides, kite and wind-surfing, and island hopping.
Children (and adults) will love to be towed at high-speed on the flyfish and banana boats.White Beach alone has numerous Dive Shops which cater for the novice as well as the more experienced divers. Specialist centres offer dive courses to PADI standards at all levels – from beginner to dive professional.
The generally calm and safe conditions of the warm, crystal-clear waters surrounding this lovely island make Boracay a must-visit desitnation for the water sports enthusiast.
Getting There
Boracay is reached from either Manila or Cebu, flying firstly to either Caticlan or Kalibo airports on Panay Island, then transferring by motor transport to the pier at Caticlan.
From the pier, Boracay seems tantalisingly close – there is just a narrow strait of water between the island and Panay. Numerous small boats await to take visitors, residents, and supplies across.
We’ll ensure that your transfer from the airport to Boracay Island goes smoothly…. and on land
For those that prefer to stay on land, there are activities available too, including horse-riding, trekking, quad-biking, and one of the best golf courses in all of Asia.
The Fairways Bluewater Golf Resort has luxury accommodation on site for those that wish to stay close to the course.
This is a championship par 72 Golf Course offering water features with gurgling creeks and rushing waterfalls created by “Living Waters” of the USA. Surely one of the finest golf courses in the Philippines today.
Eating Out & Nightlife
There are more than 200 restaurants and eateries on Boracay offering food from around the world and suiting every budget. Scores of bars and restaurants, with live music, open out onto the beach.
Pork and chicken are the most popular meats, but fresh seafood is simply delicious and available everywhere. Some restaurants offer “all you can eat” style buffets, with a large selection of fish and meat dishes from which to choose.For local colour, small market-based ihaw-ihaw (barbecue) restaurants are well worth a visit. Fresh prawns and squid are especially delicious served this way.
All Filipino dishes are best served with the world famous San Miguel beer, ice-chilled!
Numerous night spots for drinking, dancing and karaoke are spread amongst the resorts.
Talented local singer-guitarists will enchant you with popular filipino tunes, as well as internationally famous acoustic classics. (Cat Stevens, for some reason, seems particularly popular!)
There truly is something for everyone in this tropical island paradise. Boracay – One of The Philippines’ best kept secrets!
…or you can simply relax!
Enjoy a pampering massage whilst lying on Boracay’s warm sands, in specially laid out treatment rooms, or in the comfort of your hotel.
